( ooc: PLEASE take a look at my opt out! it lists a couple of things in elmer's backstory. )
1. train
[ when elmer wakes up, he is not smiling. it's almost impossible to maintain a smile while you're unconscious, after all. though part of him can't help but wonder if it's possible. would people be happier if they smiled through their sleep?
but this is no time to focus on that. the smell of blood that is mostly not his own, the crying of the other passengers, and the item in his hand-- a thin, metallic stiletto. he has no way to hide it or pocket it, but he sees no issue. if anyone is afraid of him, then surely a big warm smile and a few words of reassurance will help clear the air and get them back to smiling.
he takes note of the wounds on himself, and the fact that he's not healing from them. strange, but that hardly puts a damper on his plans. stepping over the dead, he'll go up to anyone that is not smiling and stop them. ]
Heya! We've had some pretty bad luck, huh? But you know what will turn things around? If you smile.
2. hospital
[ and so it seems like something has stopped his immortality. and though it's both a shame and a chore to have to be more careful with his own body against the creatures prowling for what seems to be their next meal, he seems to have very little problem making his way to the hospital.
in there he sees the faces of those he's formed some sort of connection with. sylvie, felt, czes...even huey and monica. but they don't seem to affect him, as he makes his way to an area with a series of medicines. as an alchemist of 300-something years, it'd be silly to say that he didn't keep up with the advances of modern medicine. ]
Hm... [ he pockets a dubious looking bottle of ibuprofen, and then turns towards your character. ] Not sure if it reached its half-life yet, but we could probably see some use for it still. [ he makes the motion of going to hand another bottle to your character...and immediately pulls back. ] Though you're gonna have to give me a smile if you want it~
3. church
[ the church has always been an odd place for elmer. having been rescued by the spanish inquisition, it was obvious that he had received their teachings; their precious miracle child. nonetheless, this didn't stop elmer from growing up an atheist and blaspheming against the very hand that fed him by deciding to become an alchemist, but he held no grudges. would've been nicer if they had smiled a little more for him, though.
still, he's in the graveyard of the church, taking a break as he sits down on the tombstone of one of the graves.
(does he notice the names of the tombstone, and how it says 'Huey Laforet'? does he even care?) ]
